Possibility of arterial spin labeling perfusion magnetic resonance imaging sequences with steroid therapy for Tolosa-Hunt syndrome: A case report and review of literature.
Article in Surgical neurology international, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundThe diagnostic criteria for Tolosa-Hunt syndrome (THS) were updated in 2013 in the 3 CASE DESCRIPTION: An 86-year-old man was complaining chiefly of the left orbital pain, as well as occipital pain, nausea, epiphora, and diplopia. Neurologically, his eye movements showed left adduction disorder and palsy of the right cranial nerve III. Magnetic resonance angiography revealed no abnormality in the left internal carotid artery. Contrast-enhanced MRI showed a region of slightly high signal in the left cavernous sinus. ASL was obtained using pCASL (TR/TE, 9000/98. 48 ms; postlabeling delay: 1525 ms; axial plane) revealed hyperperfusion from the intercavernous sinus to the vicinity of the left cavernous sinus due to a local increase in cerebral blood flow. The symptoms disappeared on day 62 of the treatment and he was in complete remission. Follow-up ASL was performed every other month showed reduced perfusion as the symptoms improved and confirmed the absence of a tumor over the follow-up period.
conclusionThis simple technique will play an important role in confirming no recurrence after steroid therapy treatment.
